An identification decal is issued and affixed to the inside driver's side windshield of each registered vehicle. If for any reason the registered vehicle, when operated by a driver under the age of 21, is stopped by a Greene County Law Enforcement officer, the officer will complete a notification card providing the following information: • Time and location of stop • Driver's Name and the number of passengers • Reason for stop • Whether any traffic tickets were issued Notifications will be mailed directly to parents to make them aware of potential problems and enable them to enforce any parental rules that often coexist with teenage driving privileges.
